From the time of delivery, customers have 14 days to pay for their purchase, with the option to pause them up to 60 days for a small fee.

Slice it

Slice it, also referred to as ‘Pay over time’, offers your customers an easily accessible consumer financing plan. In the checkout, your customer can choose the amount of monthly installments it wants to slice up the payment in; ranging from anywhere between 3-36 months. While your customer picks its preferred amount of monthly installments, the credit check takes automatically runs in the background. This check makes sure the system only shows installment options your customer is eligible for. No matter the number of installments your customer chooses, you will get paid out immediately by Klarna after shipping the product.
